Possibly the best joke I've heard this year. Thanks.

The above picture is one of those you go "wanker, wanker, wanker, dead, dead, wanker, wanker..."

Not necessarily... Chimpanzees are capable of learning from their mistakes and have never, as far as I am aware, been white supremacist two faced backstabbers with the launch codes to human annihilation...

I was reading about the Russian lady who died after being boiled in molten caramel... Apparently, she's now as one with the Galaxy....

Anyone have Robert Guillaume? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-5013825/Robert-Guillaume-Emmy-winning-Soap-actor-dies-89.html

Guillaume dead. http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2017/10/24/robert-guillaume-dies/ RIP.

Just saw her interview on Newsnight tonight. Seems to be one of these tough old birds, but nevertheless, radar-worthy....

None of the current top three have used their Wildcard yet either... Meantime, my team are holding up their end of the bargain by mostly still breathing...after all, they are not called the December Delicatessen for nothing you know...

So many threads this could have gone in, but... George Young, older brother of Malcolm and Angus who was a founding member of The Easybeats, has died aged 70. http://themusic.com.au/news/all/2017/10/23/australian-legend-and-easybeats-guitarist-george-young-passes-away/ Also an accomplished songwriter (including amazingly Waiting For A Train by Flash And The Pan) and sometime record producer for AC/DC.

Three teams had Berkowitz and accordingly another record falls, this time it is the most points in a year...gcreptile's record is gone... But hey, there's still a couple of months to go...

For corroboration and for the Hare's Pool, indeed it is, I was just about to post there...

Lady Barbara Shersby, widow of the late Tory MP Michael Shersby, has died aged 82 after a battle with cancer: http://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/deaths/218288/shersby Wiki (mention): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Shersby

If and when Berkowitz's death is confirmed (it's looking very likely), I'd like a "throwing in the towel" emoji for this thread ha ha... Think a few of us had him...

Not sure how reliable the link is, but it's being reported that Scott Putesky/Daisy Berkowitz has died: https://www.sacurrent.com/sa-sound/archives/2017/10/22/founding-marilyn-manson-band-member-has-died After checking, it seems to be true...

Depends if you count Tezza as a former PM, I mean it's only been a couple of hours since it was last confirmed she was still in post...

Thatch's funeral? Just to stamp the dirt down...?

I'm a bloke, ya biatch...

Goooaaaaalllll..... Expect Nobby Stiles' death to be announced by Tuesday...

Yikes! Get well soon time... I've never broken anything. Well, wind, maybe...

Rosemary Leach has died aged 81. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-41714112 Probably one of my favourite actresses. Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosemary_Leach IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0494863/

^I kind of imagine Charon in this way....

So, it gets interesting now. Deaths on or after October 28th gain 300+ points. Some of us have plenty of potential topplers left, some obviously are just better at predicting demises, he he. Will there be a surprise tortoise who gains 10 hits in December? Stay tuned for more...leaderboards...
